Got the camera back, now the laptop is inaccessible… However, my friends still rock. As is shown by this foray to Toronto’s Night Market at Warden & Steeles courtesy of Liz’s big blue beast!

Slightly Dorky Nerd King
It’s Liz‘s fault… she may not be a nerd… but it looks like I am NerdTests.com says I’m a Cool Nerd God. What are you? Click here! How nerdy are you?
Inappropriate, maybe.
A stranger actually called me "naughty" yesterday. "Naughty"! And not in a good way.What I did might have been inappropriate, but "naughty"? Come on! What am I, five-years old? Espresso Macciato Here's the situation. I'm sitting on a patio with my good friend Venus discussing love, loss and other personal traumas. You know, topics of interest to well-trained Drama Queens who can always end a good story with a witty self-deprecating twist. In essense, we were having a good time sitting on a patio and discussing intimate things, when a guy came out of the building next to us and started…
QotD: Simple Pleasures
Venus posed this excellent QofD:list 10 simple joys in life that give you a small hit of pleasure when you experience them Super Hero In Training. . The smell of flowering crabs and lilacs wafting through the spring air The first bite of the first ripe strawberry of the year. Wind – that intense, chaotic and powerful wind that blows right through you and leaves you cleansed The sound of a train, especially when I'm on it. Building a fire. Hearing the call of "Gerry's home" from the bottom of the stairs Rain on my skin Seeing my friends playing…
Book Meme redux
I decided to participate in Venus' Book Meme without being tagged. I don't usually do memes, but I'm sick and bored, and had a book easily within grasp. Here are the meme instructions: (you've likely seen this one before) Grab the closest book to you. Open to page 123 and find the fifth sentence on the page. Post the following three sentences to your blog. Name the book and the author. Tag three more people (and I'm assuming no tag-backs.) Season and moisten with mayonnaise. Pile into egg whites. Tuna Stuffed Eggs — Use 6 hard-cooked eggs. Tag – stampgeek,…
A Day At The Galleria
So Venus has already blogged about our Sunday at the Galleria leaving me feeling a little guilty for not getting on this sooner. But then again, I don’t always share everything I do with you guys.Honest. I do stuff I don’t blog about. Like installing software. Lying about. Checking voice mail. Obsessing about my hair. Grocery shopping. Pondering conspiracies. Riding the bus. Dancing in the snow. Eating lunch. Cab rides. Watching tv. But back to the topic at hand. Yes. I admit it. I dragged yet another friend with a vehicle up to the Galleria to giggle at the rice…
Stranded At The Craft Show
After a creepy lunch w/ Venus where we decided the quote of the day was definitely “yours is wiggly”, I met up with Minty Fresh @ Bathurst Station for a little visit to the One of a Kind show. But once we arrived and had a quick visit with the in-laws, a sore leg caused me to abandon her at the show. Luckily she’s understanding, tough and easily distracted by crafts! The cool thing is that she brought me one of her custom-made bike seat covers for the basketmobile! One of the covers she’ll be selling this weekend at Ottawa’s…

Thanks For Commenting
Today’s pathetic dial-in NaBloMoPo post is brought to you by Commenting – it’s not just for spamming anymore. Do you ever find that somedays your comments on other people’s posts are more inspired and interesting than anything you can dredge out of your brain for your own blog? Well, today is definitely one of those days, so you will get my “inspiration” in tiny tiny little bites: on QotD: I’ll Have Two Boxes, Please — Fudgee-Os are, by far, the best manufactured cookie in existence. Anyone who says otherwise must have had some childhood tastebud trauma leaving them badly damaged…
